Days with Dad

(3) K-3 A little girl cheerily recounts life with her wheelchair-using father, who feels guilty for not being able to do certain activities with his daughter. She reminds Dad that while they can't play soccer or swim in the ocean together, they can make music and build sand castles. Hong richly distills complicated emotions through her compassionate child narrator and expressive, childlike colored-pencil illustrations.
